My question is this. I have never before owned a car with paddles and I am finding it rather sticky. Any suggestions for smooth shifting. I have for years driven six speed sticks, but this paddle business is making me look like a buffoon on the street. Well, more so than ordinarily, anyway.

Below a couple of snaps after bringing it home Saturday.

Many thanks in advance,

Cheers,

RW.
Yes, they take some getting used to. Congratulations on your new SLR!

When you decide to take it to the next level in performance, give me a pm.

Happy Benzing!!!
